Sorbent technology for sustainable dialysis

The WEAKID sorbent technology could be interesting to reduce dialysis water consumption. Last week, Karin Gerritsen presented innovative ideas in dialysis on the KDIGO Controversies Conference on Green Dialysis in Berlin.

The dialysis users are the ultimate experts

Direct involvement of dialysis users is essential for the succes of this project and crucial for the development of the WEAKID device! Therefore we appreciate that already 65 surveys have been completed and we expect to reach our goal of 100 this summer. We will also soon plan the interactive focus groups: the first one will take place in the Netherlands, with similar sessions later in Spain and Italy.
